So for all the breastfeeding mommies, what birth control did you guys get? I was planning on getting…

whats that?

I've heard the mini pill is good but you've got to remember to take it daily at the same time. Is nexplanon the arm one??

@mumof2, it's an implant in your arm! they numb you before they insert it

@queendavis, yeah! and I couldn't remember to take the pills before I got pregnant, I could only imagine after I have her 😭

my girlfriend had the implant in her arm she had real heavy periods and they lasted for a month. i felt super bad for her

I have the depo shot its every 3 months

im doing pills and condoms i tried the iud pierced my uterus and i hate the depo it made me gain too much weight if i weren't doing the doo i wouldn't even get on birth control. i personally hate it. it messes up your natural cycle and hormones.

@mumof2, not everyone has the same reaction to it and that's usually a side effect for like 3 months I think. @kevynnsmommy0316 @mumof2 I had depo before and will never get it again, I hated it 😭 and yeah I'd do the pills if I knew I could remember but I know I won't so I need something long term in a way?

yeah i did pills and now im pregnant haha just couldnt remember to take them. but i will remember now haha. i think it was all in my head because i wanted another baby any way

I know for sure I wouldn't remember to take the pills and my ass would get pregnant again!! 🙅🏼🙅🏼 I may look into getting an iud, I haven't decided yet. I don't think I'm down for the creepy arm implant!! 🙀🙀

@mumof2, @queendavis the pill is what got me here in the first place lmfao. I told my mom I would find something long term 😭 I'm too scared to get an IUD from what everyone has said, so creepy arm plant will do 😂

ok sounds good then try it and tell me how it is for u

I had it before having Sadie and loved it, I did get one of the scarey side effects of tons of ovarian cysts but they weren't harmful I had a biopsy. after I have it removed they basically all went away. I'm actually getting it again Friday! and I'll just have to go for a ultra sound every few months to check how many cysts

@steph11, the arm implant? :)

yes! nexplannon or how ever it's spelt!

@steph11, were you prone to cysts before you got it? I had a cyst before I got pregnant and it ended up going away by itself. I honestly think the pills made me get one (doctors claim they help rid of them)but not in my case.

I don't know that's the other problem, I'd never had a ultrasound done before getting it eacuse I never had a issue. then I had a few burst and it was so painful. I had like 30 on each ovary. they were little and completely harmless.

plus I'd never been on birth control for more than like a month before I tried the pill for a week, couldn't remember it and I tried nuvaring and just hated it. I couldn't get it in the right place I guess and it'd fall out or feel like it was going to

@steph11, well I'm glad you found one you like! :)) maybe you won't have the same problem this time around
